How Do You Contour SVG on Cricut?

Contouring SVGs on Cricut is a great way to add a personal touch to your projects. It allows you to create intricate and detailed designs that are unique and one-of-a-kind.

Contouring an SVG file is the process of cutting out a shape from a larger image or pattern. The Cricut Maker and Cricut Explore Air machines have several tools available to help you contour SVG files with ease.

The first step when contouring an SVG on Cricut is to upload your file into Design Space, the software for Cricut machines. Once the file is uploaded, use the Slice feature to separate the design into individual pieces that can be cut out separately.

This allows you to customize each piece so it fits your project perfectly. You can also use the Contour tool in Design Space which allows you to select specific shapes from within an image and manipulate them.

Once you have finished slicing or contouring your image, select “Make It” in Design Space and choose the material that you would like to cut out your design on. When prompted, choose “Contour” as your action so the machine will know how to cut out each part of your design. After selecting “Contour”, place your material onto the cutting mat and load it into the machine.

The final step in contouring SVG files with Cricut is attaching all of the separate pieces together using vinyl or HTV (Heat Transfer Vinyl). Once all of the pieces are attached together, it will be ready for display or use in any project!

Conclusion:

Contouring SVG files on Cricut is a great way to customize designs for any project. By using features such as Slice and Contour in Design Space, it’s easy to separate images into individual pieces and attach them together for a unique look. Whether you’re creating something for yourself or someone else, contouring SVGs on Cricut will ensure that it’s customized exactly how you want it!
